Sorry no idea. My child is planning for Arts courses not Science.
Chem being pre requisite for many uni courses, is this only applicable in SG? How abt overseas uni? -

Isn’t upper sec Chemistry also very visual? Dot and cross diagram, molecular bonding, enthalpy graphs, redox reactions?
For visual learners, likely physics and biology are more suitable and compatible combination. Both are about how something or system works. -

Well no issue then. And chem tuition is common and easy to find. Unlike Lit for example, dun even have TYS.

Chem to me is not useful unless one is looking at lab work. Most of us do not need to know so much in details. Those i know who major in chem, so far, didn't go into lab work eventually.

Bio is useful, even so in child caring. Physics is all around us in physical world. -

Chem principles are actually more useful than bio if aiming for science-related career.

Bio tbh is easily picked up becos the content is just factual. Anyone with interest will be motivated enough to remember the necessary info, even if starting late at uni level. -
Chemistry is call the central science. I suppose that is the reason it is made compulsory in the early years of basic education.

Chenistry is a core subject, as long as you are a Science student in other countries too, apart from SG.
If u are an Arts student, then Chem is not compulsory. -
Hearsay last year batch did very well for O level. Anyone has information to share?
